So, as most of you know, Sofyan and I have been staying with family for the past year, which all in all, was not what we wanted at all! It was complicated, and I felt like we were stuck for sooo long, with the wrath of some older family members....Now, things have turned around, and we are about to sign on our very own apartment tomorrow....This is huge for us! Finally, we can feel like husband and wife, in our own place, my own kitchen, etc,etc. The thing is, its 30 miles from where we were before, (for those of you from chicago, we were in oak forest, now going to Countryside) so its involving me getting transferred from my job to a new location. Its sooo many things changing, and I am sooo exstatic! We picked out furniture yesterday, and will do some more shopping thursday, and should be all settled in by this weekend....Inshallah! Im sooo freaking excited I could scream! Wish us luck!

Two Hearts, Two Different Places, Sharing One Dream

We were strangers~ Starting out on a journey~Never dreaming What we'd have to go through ~Now here we are ~ And I'm suddenly standing ~ At the beginning with you ~ No one told me I was going to find you ~ Unexpected ~ What you did to my heart ~ When I lost hope You were there to remind me ~ This is the start ~ Life is a road And I want to keep going ~ Love is a river I wanna keep flowing ~ Life is a road Now and forever ~ Wonderful journey ~ I'll be there When the world stops turning~ I'll be there When the storm is through ~ In the end I wanna be standing At the beginning with you~
